    An Electropop Xmas

    Guess I’m stuck in 2006, and I don’t think that some of the following records will appear in shops in one evening. <object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value=""></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"...

    Sugarbabes

    Carl Craig remixes “So You Say” by Siobhan on the limited vinyl edition of the single. By the way, the press is saying things about the record as beautiful as “Siobhan's back, and has decided to become Lindsay Lohan doing Kate Bush on Stars In Their...

    Rihanna - Umbrella

    As expected: "Speaking of Bat, he has a fascinating take on Rihanna's 'Umbrella', which I hope he will post soon - incidentally, at this stage, it's looking very possible that Rihanna may well end up producing my favourite singles of both 2006 and 3007"...

    Daphne Oram "Oramics"

    Did a search on the forum but didn’t find any mention about this compilation. So many talks and words wasted about hauntology and the Radiophonic Workshop,… So let’s start with this. Check the following links for some information about the composer: The “Oramics” compilation...

    So, Julian Cope is going to publish this new book called “Japrocksampler” and…

    If I remember well, he doesn’t like at all Keiji Haino and his outfits (Lost Aarafat, Fushitsusha, etc.) so probably it wouldn’t be at the core of the book. Also I think there is a recurring theme between the two books. The subtitle is “How the post-war Japanese blew their minds on rock’n roll”...

    So, Julian Cope is going to publish this new book called “Japrocksampler” and…

    I guess it could make for a beautiful discussion on the topic or the multiple tangents. To state the obvious, the book has the same structure as “Krautrocksampler” (the story of six big bands (really don’t know which six, the guys on the cover are The Flower Travellin Band, without doubt Les...

    Early Modern RnB - the Producers

    Less or more i was aksing myself the same questions about the evolution of modern r'n'b. Not so much about the sonic evolution (working & polishing the textures, and lately using the rhythm as texture) but the socio-economic history and also why the change on the production side. I found useful...

    New Justin Timberlake song.

    About Dre. I remember reading how John Cale went to the studio where Dre was recording. Cale said that he played the music at almost 120 dB so he can feel the frequencies in his guts. And also he had some people checking all the gear because the pieces start to vibrate and get into the mix. Mr...

    Derek Bailey RIP

    i guess for many people was the door to enter to improv music. trying to listen to those noises, scraps and sounds and not just thinking that was crap, and the feeling when you discover the logic behind that. i guess that is something that doesn't happen when you listen to evan parker. by the...

    what are the best/your favourite sites/blogs for film?

    i use to visit this place to see how the list of things i want to buy gets longer and longer: http://www.mastersofcinema.org/ i also check this spanish magazine (because it's funny to read about apichatpong weerasethakul in your native tongue). it isn't very big, and it's more based around the...

    Film Popism

    Just for being speculative (i see lots of holes in the following): When we’re talking about art cinema i should talk about two streams, one, centered around the little stories, the relationship between the characters or some kind of ideas less or more expressed. That one is really boring, even...
